Some of these are seriously addicting, and it's no surprise that many of them have been shamelessly copied and sold as smartphone apps. Galaxies is probably my favorite.

Clearly the solution is to employ a GAN, so that we simultaneously get artificial voices that are indistinguishable to the human ear, as well as judges that are able to reliably distinguish them.

Why is Protect a non-blocking call? That means that after I call Protect on some data, it's not actually protected yet.

You could evade the runtime relocation by copying the data into a new buffer allocated by mmap.

Mostly because it has an "ignore comments" mode. A lot of non-English speaking programmers write code using English keywords and identifiers but use their native language in the comments. With some work, it could be made language-

What an odd coincidence: I just published a Go package yesterday to detect such attacks in source code. Is there a homography bug going around? https://github.com/NebulousLabs/glyphcheck (btw, Wikipedia notes that &quo

>why not strive to transcend our need to be motivated by suffering? If you can do so in a way that does not lead to stagnation, I am willing to hear you out. The only people I'm aware of who have transcended suffering are Buddhist m

Your analysis is much better than my gross simplification. What I meant is that in both situations, the solution is acceptance, not escapism (masquerading as transcendence). I agree with Camus' conclusion that we must create our own me

Titanic (1997) is a pretty well-known example. There isn't much of a lesson to draw from that movie that would have averted the disaster. It simply uses the disaster as a plot element to tell a story about love. >rejecting the idea

> The point of tragic fiction is to say: the world would suck if it were like this, so let's try not to make it like this. I think that is a narrow interpretation. Many tragic plays are catalyzed by sheer misfortune rather than anyt

How can you judge whether someone's suffering is unnecessary? Only the author of the story knows that, because only the author knows how the story ends and how the individual arcs tie together.

I completely disagree, so I don't expect we will find much common ground :P

>the perspectives of the people experiencing it (the world) Well, a lot of things rest on that equivocation. Personally I consider the world to be more than just the sum of the experiences of individuals. To me, it is more like a story i

I am aware of that, yes. I was making an analogy. The point of the analogy is that, even though Romeo and Juliet would likely not have considered their world "the best of all possible worlds," we (the readers) do consider their wo

>It seems we should grant [that "Our world is not the best of all possible worlds"], since we can easily imagine our world being better – more happy people, less suffering. Only if you define "better" in those terms.

Perhaps, but you aren't saving a ton of typing if you still need to specify all the types. I think you can get away with xs.morph(x => x*x) because you know that xs is a slice of ints, so x must be an int, and that means x*

After what happened to Assange, I can't help feeling skeptical of character-assassination pieces on people associated with Wikileaks.

I've often found that my motivation to work on something decreases if I'm being paid to do it. Side projects are often much more fun and energizing than your day job. Hope you feel the same!

I wish there were more TensorFlow examples written in Go. I made the mistake of checking out TensorFlow as my first intro to ML and it flew about 10 miles over my head. Slowly learning now, but most of the documentation and tutorials are wr

I think people are taking your comment too personally. It's not about an individual doctor, but the healthcare business. It's not about an individual lawyer, but the legal business.

This is so cool to hear. I've long been holding out hope that we won't be trapped in the current CPU paradigm forever. Thank you for the work you're doing.

Unless the "bug" was inserted by a developer... I'm really curious to see the "single character" in question and assess whether it might have been intentional.

Unfortunately, most people agree that the ast package is a mess. It isn't used by the actual compiler. There is some talk of eventually deprecating it and publishing the internal ast/parser/type-checker packages.

Given what I know of Smullyan, my guess is that he died very gracefully. Perhaps he was even looking forward to venturing into the great Unknown. Godspeed.
